😎 Thank you for the warm welcome in Deal, Kent today! From medieval heritage to modern community spirit, The King spent the day learning about this coastal town’s history and people.

🌱 The King joined ‘Deal With It’ environmental group’s coastal clean-up alongside local cadets. Their dedication - contributing 1,000 volunteer hours annually - keeps this stunning 3-mile coastline beautiful for everyone.

🪴 At Deal Castle’s Captain’s Garden, The King discovered how volunteers have transformed a forgotten walled space into a thriving community haven, meeting inspiring local groups including Deal Area Foodbank and Leaps and Bounds.

🚤 At Walmer RNLI Station, The King undertook his first official visit as Patron, meeting volunteers and watching an emergency launch demonstration - a reminder that Walmer station has saved over 1,220 lives since 1856.

🏰 His Majesty also visited magnificent Walmer Castle, meeting representatives from all 14 towns in the ancient Cinque Ports confederation, and planted a commemorative tree in The Queen Mother’s Garden.
